At Text and Rock, we make art with heart that helps you grow in faith and virtue. We start with the belief that it is okay to read sacred texts and ask big questions (DIG), embrace doubt (SIT), and wrestle with God (WONDER). Most of all, we hope that our poetry and prose bring you joy, levity, and hope.

Everything we make is Indy Published and intentional. We make art designed to be a bridge between antiquity and modern, everyday life. There are a hundred books published a day in the academic community of Biblical Studies— we make poetry and prose that comes in the side door through art. We believe one of the greatest pursuits of a creature made by the Artist par excellence, is to point back to God and call creation beautiful through artistic expression.

You can find a couple of our books on Amazon in premium, hardback editions. However, in an age of mass consumption and products that get thrown away… we love that we can express our art digitally. Most of our products are delivered to you instantly through a pdf link which leads to a secret page with tons of bonuses, interviews, videos of Eric and me in action, and fun!

Eric is a musician, podcaster, rhythm instructor, and dragon enthusiast (yes it’s a thing). They love to see people grow and thrive in life and virtue.
